Options that matter on site
- Loading equipment. Dock levellers, shelters, seals, bollards and guide protection fitted alongside the door.
- Aftercare. Once fitted, we can service the door on a schedule and repair it, along with doors from other installers.
- Fixed price. You receive the price in writing once the survey is done, and it is agreed before anyone starts work.
- Safety set-up. Each motorised door gets the safety devices its risk assessment calls for and is force-tested before use.
- Free survey. We measure and inspect the opening first, so the price reflects your building rather than a guess.
Typical scopes of work
- Fitting a freezer door with heated frame and inside release to a new cold room within a food production unit.
- Phasing the replacement of several loading bay doors over consecutive weekends so goods-in stays open during the week.
- Replacing corroded roller shutters on a vehicle workshop with insulated roller doors and new key-switch controls.
Who is responsible for door safety at a site in Felixstowe?
In England, two sets of duties meet at a powered door. The installer who supplies or motorises it must hand over a door that meets the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008, tested against BS EN 12453 and documented. The business in control of the premises must then maintain it: regulation 5 of the Workplace Regulations 1992 covers maintenance, and regulation 18 requires upward-opening doors to have a device that stops them falling back and powered doors to have features that prevent trapping.
Access, phasing and timing
Most installations in Felixstowe can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.

Frequently asked questions
Who signs off a new powered door at our Felixstowe site?
When we assemble or motorise a door, we take on the manufacturer's role under machinery law: risk assessment, testing, conformity marking and the Declaration of Conformity. You then keep the door maintained as the employer or occupier.
How soon could a new door be installed at our Felixstowe premises?
It depends mainly on the manufacturer's lead time for a made-to-measure door, which we confirm in the quote. Installation is then booked around your operations, and most single doors are fitted and commissioned in a day.
How much does industrial door installation cost in Felixstowe?
Guide prices, ex VAT and supplied and fitted, start at £2,395 to £5,495 for an electric single-skin roller shutter up to about 4 × 4 m, or £3,495 to £8,495 for an insulated sectional door. Your fixed price in Felixstowe is confirmed in writing after a free survey.
